South Korea Approves 20-Robot Robros Trial Across Industrial Sites
South Korea's industrial-convergence regulatory sandbox committee has approved a trial of 20 Robros humanoid robots across four sites—Nepes, Sungwoo Hitech, HD Hyundai Samho, and Delivery Lab—covering tasks like semiconductor cleaning, automotive part positioning, shipbuilding material stacking, and refrigerated packaging. The approval is a testing exemption, not a confirmation of completed deployments, and will require risk assessments and mitigation measures to inform future safety standards. Separately, Robros is targeting a first-half 2027 release of its own humanoid AI model focused on manufacturing and logistics, with data-collection targets of 800,000 simulation hours and 200,000 hours of human video.
Robros Adds Full-Body Teleoperation to Its Korean Humanoid
Robros, a Seoul-based startup founded in 2020, has demonstrated real-time full-body teleoperation of its IGRIS-C humanoid robot, extending control beyond arms to coordinated posture, squatting, turning, and object handling. The company reports 18 cumulative robot sales against 36 units produced, with paid industrial trials spanning semiconductor, automotive manufacturing, and logistics applications.
Korea’s First Full-Stack Humanoid Clears Backflip: IGRIS-C Is Already on Factory Floors
Seoul-based startup Robros has developed IGRIS-C, Korea's first full-stack domestic humanoid robot capable of performing dynamic full-body motions including backflips and windmill spins, with all hardware, control algorithms, and AI developed in-house without foreign components. The company has raised $10.6 million in total venture funding and is currently conducting proof-of-concept evaluations at logistics companies and shipyards, positioning itself as a domestic alternative amid FCC restrictions on Chinese-made robots in the US market.
